Ronald Reagan quotes
Government's first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives.
Man is not free unless government is limited.
Government does not solve problems; it subsidizes them.
Abortion is advocated only by persons who have themselves been born.
Government always finds a need for whatever money it gets.
Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.
Thomas Jefferson once said, "we should never judge a president by his age, only by his works." And ever since he told me that, I stopped worrying.
The government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: if it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it
Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first.
How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lyndon.

Education in America
My understanding of the movie is that it indicates the teachers unions are at fault. This can not sit well with this arm of the Lib party. The teachers are ultimately blamed, indirectly.
It is true some teachers under perform and should look for other employment. Remember the schools failed before the standardized test were introduced. The cause of their failures must rest elsewhere. The liberal unions are largely to blame for their programs, indoctrinations, and progressive policies. Their support for liberal administrators who run the districts is also a cause for failure. The absolute lack of discipline and parental involvement has to be two of the greatest factors.
I have a question now. Don't get exercised. I'm only asking the question. This morning some egghead researcher/educator stated if we got rid of 5% of the teachers (bad ones) we would lead the world in education. Here's a question: in the psychotic liberal world if a disproportionate number of bad teachers turn out to be members of minority groups which liberal rule would apply. The one that says the teachers are at fault get rid of them, or as with prison inmates the disproportionate number of minorities serving time is due to racism.
A. C. SmithsonWe have to pass it before we can know what's in it
Today it seems the Associated Press finally figured it out. In a story out of Washington Ricardo Alonso Zaldivar says, " the new health care law wasn't supposed to undercut employer plans that have provided most people in the U.S. with coverage for generations. Last week a leading manufacturer told workers that cost will jump partly because of the law. A Democrat governor laid out a scheme for employers to get out of health care by shifting workers into taxpayer subsidized insurance markets that opened in 2014."
Wasn't supposed to undercut? That was the intent of the passage of Obama care. To make all Americans dependent on the government for health care. To drive private insurance companies out of business. Their plan all along was to have a one payer system.

Breast Cancer Awareness
I am completely and totally aware of breast!
I am reasonably aware of cancer.
I wanted the ribbon to go to someone who either can't remember breast or can't remember cancer. Someone additionally may feel the need to show the world they care. My concern with cancer as well as my concern about many things goes without saying.

Point to ponder
In the words of our 20th president James A. Garfield:
"Now more than ever the people are responsible for the character of the Congress. If that body be ignorant, reckless, and corrupt, it is because the people tolerate ignorance, recklessness, and corruption. If it be intelligent, brave, and pure, it is because the people demand these high qualities to represent them in the national legislature.... If the next centennial does not find us a great nation.... It will be because those who represent the enterprise, the culture, and the morality of the nation do not aid in controlling the political forces."
Liberal halfwit
Now this average liberal has no problem with the government overstepping its constitutional limits. No problem with spending us into oblivion. No problem with us moving toward a socialist state where everyone is equally poor and miserable.

The Petit family in Cheshire, Connecticut needed a gun in the home when two animals broke into their home. Two of the three female victims were raped. One was strangled. Two were tied up. Gas was poured on all three and the house was set on fire. One of the females which was raped was 11 years old. "How can having a gun in the house be a good thing?"
A. C. SmithsonJuan Williams firing from National Public Radio
National Progressive Radio is in part subsidized by tax dollars. Why is this? Do they not have a product that can sale. The answer is clear. Normal people do not want to listen to a bunch of libs sit around talking about their feelings. Funding should be cut off. While we are at it Am Track should not be funded either. If those Yankees want it let them pay for it with local taxes.

How much time is enough
More time? How much more? Does he need four years, six years, eight years or what? How long does it take to transform the greatest, freest, richest nation on earth into a socialist utopia?
How much more time does he need to silence free speech with programs like the fairness doctrine? How long will it take to pass the Cap and Trade energy tax, so that every form of energy is taxed at much higher rates. How much time is needed before government is the only access to health care? How much more time is needed in order to nationalize American corporations? How long until enough funds have been redistributed from the earners to the moochers? How much more time is needed to stack the Supreme Court with Marxist so that the liberals can enact laws by judicial fiat instead of the legislative process? How long will it be before you are paying 70 plus percent of your earnings in taxes? How much time does he need in order to legalize illegal aliens to keep democrats in power for the next 60 to 70 years?
Yo, useful idiots how much more time does Barack Hoover Obama need?

Wise quotes
Admiration is the daughter of ignorance.
At 20 years of age the will reigns; at thirty, the wit; and at forty, the judgment.
Do not squander time for that is the stuff life is made of.
Being ignorant is not so much a shame, as being unwilling to learn.
Ben Franklin

A woman is the only thing I am afraid of that I know will not hurt me. Abraham Lincoln
All my life I have tried to pluck a thistle and plant a flower wherever the flower would grow in thought and mind. Abraham Lincoln

De-evolution has arrived!
El Paso Times byline "City moves to create a vulnerable road users law." Pedestrians, runners, physically disabled people, highway construction workers, tow truck operators, utility workers, stranded motorist, people on horseback, bicyclist, hand cyclist, horse-drawn conveyance operators, and farm equipment operators could soon have an additional layer of protection.
The city will write an ordinance aimed at outlining new rules for drivers when it comes to sharing the streets with so-called vulnerable road users. This should do it. Telling drivers not to crash into this vast group of victims should remedy the situation.
Back in the old days when we were less sophisticated and less evolved we had a simple understanding. Cars belong on the road other things don't. Regardless of whatever nonsensical ordinance these morons dream up nothing will change. Drivers may be at greater peril from over criminalization of our society, but this other category of street sharers will have no more protection. Inattentive pedestrians, cyclist, riders on skittish horses will still face the same hazards if they choose to intermix with motor vehicles.
When I was a relatively young person of age eight or nine I understood this. I knew that if I got on the roadway in the path of a car I would come up a loser. This is why I made it a point to stay the hell out of the way. When I walked near a roadway or when crossing the street I had the same understanding. When I rode my horses I understood this. The 20 plus years I worked as a police officer on the highways I understood this.
When you put bicycle paths on high-speed highways, Loop 375 for example you will eventually have mishaps. Fallible humans are operating the cars and bicycles. Mistakes will happen. If you want an ordinance that will protect the safety of these vulnerable road users make one that tells them to stay the hell off the road. Pedestrians are not allowed on interstate highways for a reason. In the days when we were less intelligent and less evolved we understood that an unprotected pedestrian meandering in an environment with 2,000 pound bullets flying by was not a workable situation. Now we think it's okay.
If you walk on a train track long enough a train will get you. If you swim in the ocean long enough a shark may attack. If you fly like a bird (airplane) there is a possibility you may crash. No ordinance written by a group of simpletons will protect you. Note to vulnerable road users stay off the road if possible. Pedestrians use sidewalks or other areas off the street.

One of the reasons I believe men cannot figure out women is because women are always changing, evolving. Even parts of them change depending on their geographical location. Consider if you will a woman's breast. In a doctor's office they are breast, in a bar they are tits, and on the beach they are boobs. See why we're confused?

Obamaville Update Diaper Crisis
I don't know maybe I'm a little harsh, but if you can't afford to buy diapers to cover their butts maybe you shouldn't be having kids. That is unless you think someone else should buy them for you. How do you plan to feed, cloth, and shelter them?
My wife and I had two kids. We had two because we thought we could feed and care for them. We were married seven years and waited until we could afford a house before we had children. This planning is called personal responsibility. It obviously no longer exist in Obamaville.

T.S.T.A / N.E.A. magazine
In reading the in-depth, rigorous, detailed probe of White during his interview with TSTA Democrats, nothing was revealed. The magazine claimed that he had promised to make education funding a top priority. He said "I will try to give priority (not top priority) to education." He is going to try, he promised to try.
Another question concerned lower student/teacher ratio in the classrooms. He gave no answer as to what could be done. I'll answer. If you want a lower student/teacher ratio in the classroom don't enroll illegal aliens.
He called the existing accountability system for the public schools a joke. He offered no alternative. He will continue the status quo.
Unionists interjected politics into school curriculum not the state Board of Education. The magazine blamed the Board of Education. The board simply attempted to rectify some of the rewriting of history.
Unions, liberal politicians, school boards/administrations, and neglectful permissive parents, have destroyed public education not the teachers.
White promised you nothing. He simply answered with political double talk committing to nothing.
The union showcases the fact that White's parents were both teachers. A noble profession that he did not follow himself. He must not have thought it a worthwhile endeavor. Instead he decided to be a liberal politician.
In future issues instead of wasting all the magazine space on politics just simply say what you mean, vote Democrat!
Remember NCLB authors were Edward Kennedy and George Miller, liberal Democrats.
Unions, politicians, and administrations, are far more concerned with holding and expanding their power and influence. These goals are far more important than educating children in today's society.

Clown of the Day
This morning a defense lawyer stated that the prosecution had not proven that his client intended to kill his four victims during a home invasion. He shot some of them in the head. He strangled one of them. He raped two of them and tied them to their beds. He poured gas on them and set the house on fire. Clearly he had no intent to hurt anyone. Some Obama supporters would believe this. Why do these elites think we are this stupid? One reason may be because we elected Obama. Another reason may be Donald.
Today I was reading my NEA comic book (NEA today). A teacher named Donald Wood from Ashbury Park, New Jersey wrote the following of which I will paraphrase in order to avoid punishing you the reader. He speaks of some education babe name Diane Ravitch. She says that No Child Left Behind had some consequences which were unintended. Wood says it is clear in reading No Child Left Behind that its authors were hostile toward public school teachers. It is an expression of a larger view among conservatives that liberalism is a threat, and must be eradicated. Public school teachers and the humanism (any system of thought based on the interests and ideals of humanity) they teach have become symbols of what conservatives hate and fear most: progressivism (I call what they are doing regressivism). Ravitch glossed over an important point -- or she is naive according to Donald.
Donald, Donald, Donald, if you are this ill-informed you should not be writing to a magazine as in this case, they may publish your thoughts. Two of the most progressive liberal Democrats ever are the authors that you say wrote NCLB because they are hostile toward public school teachers. Donald the authors of no Child left behind were Edward Kennedy D. - Dead - Massachusetts, and George Miller D. - California. Ravitch knew this and that is why she was gentle on them. Donald, you are far too ill-informed and unintelligent to be a teacher. I indicated at the beginning of this piece I wholeheartedly support teachers. Donald, in your case get the hell out you MORON!
